make better use of horizontal space in ncls #1985

Open dankamongmen opened 3 years ago

dankamongmen commented 3 years ago

ncls currently prints everything on different lines, even if it doesn't have an image associated. we ought make more efficient use of available horizontal space. this is trivial for the case without images, but gets more interesting when images are involved. basically, i'd like to see us:

this latter case ought pretty much look like @hacker9's lsix, except they render fonts themselves, and we're not going to be doing that.

this is not a duplicate of #2008, but it's similar.
